A close-up view of the very small resonator, taken with a scanning electron microscope, used in the first demonstration of quantum behavior in an everyday object. The resonator is made of a thin film of aluminum nitride sandwiched between aluminum layers. The mechanically active part of the structure is the quadrilateral shape in the center. Credit: A.
